SOURCE apnews.com
Hundreds of migrants from different countries are journeying on foot from Mexico's southern border towards the U.S. border, aiming to arrive before the U.S. elections in November to avoid potential border closure under a new Trump administration.

Key Points

  • Migrants fear potential border closure under a new Trump administration
  • Mexico has made it harder for migrants to reach the U.S. border through buses and trains

Pros

  • Migrants are trying to seek asylum legally through the CBP One app
  • Organizing in groups helps reduce risks of attacks and immigration issues

Cons

  • Difficulty in obtaining travel permits without visas
  • Risk of being detained and bused back to southern Mexico
